5 Introduction 1 Introduction As part of Standards Release 2015 (SR 2015), several category 3 messages and especially the MT 306 have been enhanced to support a range of new derivative instruments. This document provides both an overview of the new instruments as well as usage guidelines and example messages. 1.1 Background to the Enhancements The SR 2015 derivatives enhancements were requested by the Global Financial Markets Association (GFMA) Global FX Division ( (FX)/Foreign-Exchange-(FX)/) in order to increase automated, electronic confirmation of exotic FX instruments that have been standardised by ISDA. The drivers to increase automation of these instruments are both regulatory and operational. See the International Swaps and Derivatives Association's (ISDA) website for details of the confirmation terms for these instruments. It is anticipated that further such instruments will be added to category 3 messages, as and when ISDA develop standardised terms for them. 26 June

6 Category 3 - Treasury Markets - Foreign Exchange, Money Markets, and Derivatives for Standards MT November Non-Deliverable Options 2.1 Overview As part of SR 2015, additional support has been added to the MT 305 and MT 306 for Non- Deliverable Options (NDO). Vanilla NDOs should be confirmed in MT 305, but if they have a barrier or other construct that doesn't fit in the MT 305 they should be confirmed in the MT Vanilla NDO Enhancements Field 14S Settlement Rate Source has been added to the MT 305 in sequence A General Information to allow one or more rate sources to be defined. This should be used when the option is cash settled, irrespective of whether the underlying currencies are deliverable or nondeliverable. In field 26F Settlement Type in sequence A General Information the settlement type should be specified as NETCASH. The settlement currency can either be specified explicitly in field 72 Sender to Receiver Information in sequence A General Information or assumed to be the counter-currency, as per definition of NETCASH in field 26F Settlement Type. 2.3 Non-Deliverable Barrier and Other Non-Vanilla NDOs Although these can already be confirmed with the MT 306, updates have been made to improve support. The format of field 14S Settlement Rate Source in sequence H Non Deliverable Option Block has been extended to include an optional time and location for the rate source. It has also been made repetitive in order to cater for cross-currency NDOs Example Non-Deliverable Barrier Option The following example is for a non-deliverable cross-currency option that has a single knock-in barrier.

8 Category 3 - Treasury Markets - Foreign Exchange, Money Markets, and Derivatives for Standards MT November Physically Fixed Deliverable Options 3.1 Overview These are deliverable options that are "auto-exercised" based on an agreed rate source. The agreement whether to auto-exercise is covered by a master agreement and is not recorded in the MT 305 or MT 306 itself. It may be decided to include the agreement to auto-exercise explicitly in the confirmation in a future standards release. 3.2 Vanilla Options For an MT F Settlement Type in sequence A General Information should be PRINCIPAL 14S Settlement Rate Source should be included in sequence A General Information. This field may be repeated if a cross-currency rate is required. 3.3 Barriers and Other Non-Vanilla Options For an MT 306: 17F Non-Deliverable Indicator in sequence A General Information should be N 14S Settlement Rate Source should be included in sequence B Transaction Details. This field may be repeated if a cross-currency rate is required. 8 Message Usage Guidelines

9 Knock-In Knock-Out Barrier Options 4 Knock-In Knock-Out Barrier Options 4.1 Overview The MT 306 already supports single and double barrier options. In SR 2015, the MT 306 is being extended to support options that have both a knock-in and knock-out barrier. This is a vanilla option that knocks-out if and when the knock-out barrier is hit, but can only be exercised if the knock-in barrier has been hit and it has not knocked-out. 4.2 Knock-In Knock-Out Changes These are specified in the MT 306, sequence F Barrier Block, field 22G Type of Barrier with new codes KIKO or KOKI, with the code governing whether the upper barrier level in the message is the knock-in and the lower barrier level the knock-out or vice-versa. In other respects, they are identical to other barrier options. 4.3 Example Knock-In Knock-Out Barrier Option The following example is for a knock-in knock-out barrier option that knocks-in at a rate of 1,125 and knocks-out at a rate of 1,054. Since the knock-in rate is higher, it is specified as KIKO.

11 Multiple Window Barrier Options 5 Multiple Window Barrier Options 5.1 Overview The MT 306 already supports specification of a window for barrier options. In SR 2015, the MT 306 is being extended to support multiple windows, so that multiple periods can be defined during which the barriers are monitored. 5.2 Multiple Window Changes Multiple windows are specified by repeating subsequence F1 Barrier Window Block within sequence F Barrier Block, for each window. Multiple windows must be specified in increasing chronological order. 5.3 Example Multiple Window Barrier Option The following example is for a single-knock-in barrier option whose barrier is monitored over three windows, during June, July, and August Sequences Explanation Format Sequence A - General Information General Information :15A: Sender's Reference :20: Type of Operation :22A:NEWT Common Reference :22C:CITI333214DRESFF Contract Number Party A :21N:FXC0526 Option Style :12F:VANI Expiration Style :12E:EURO Barrier Flag :17A:Y Non Deliverable Flag (NDO) :17F:N Sequence B - Transaction Details / Premium Details / Calc Agent Type of Event Party A Party B Terms and Conditions Transaction Details Buy (Sell) Indicator Trade Date Expiration Date Expiration Location and Time Final Settlement Date Premium Payment Date Premium Currency and Amount Calculation Agent :22K:CONF :82A:DRESDEFF :87A:CITIUS33 :77H:ISDA :15B: :17V:B :30T: :30X: :29E:USCH/1600 :30F: :30V: :34B:EUR22500, :84A:CITIUS33 26 June

13 Discrete Barrier Options 6 Discrete Barrier Options 6.1 Overview The MT 306 already supports barrier options in which the barrier or barriers are monitored within a window, or from SR 2015 within multiple windows. A discrete barrier is one for which the barrier event is considered at discrete times, rather than the normal continuous barrier case. The barrier is monitored based on an agreed rate-source. 6.2 Discrete Barrier Changes Discrete barrier options are supported by the MT 306 in the same way as a standard multiple window barrier option (see previous section), with the addition of field 14S Settlement Rate Source in the repeating subsequence F1 Barrier Window Block within sequence F Barrier Block. The discrete barrier is monitored from the rate source specified in field 14S Settlement Rate Source, optionally at the specified time and location. Field 14S may be repeated for cross-currency rates. 6.3 Example Discrete Barrier Option The following example is for a discrete double knock-in barrier option for a currency cross, whose barrier will be monitored on 6 June 2015 based on the BRL09 and EUR2 rate sources: Sequences Explanation Format Sequence A - General Information Sequence B - Transaction Details / Premium Details / Calc Agent General Information :15A: Sender's Reference :20: Type of Operation Common Reference Contract Number Party A Option Style Expiration Style Barrier Flag Non Deliverable Flag (NDO) Type of Event Party A Party B Terms and Conditions Transaction Details Buy (Sell) Indicator Trade Date Expiration Date Expiration Location and Time Final Settlement Date Premium Payment Date Premium Currency and Amount :22A:NEWT :22C:CITI333214DRESFF :21N:FXC0526 :12F:VANI :12E:EURO :17A:Y :17F:N :22K:CONF :82A:DRESDEFF :87A:CITIUS33 :77H:ISDA :15B: :17V:B :30T: :30X: :29E:USCH/1600 :30F: :30V: :34B:EUR22500, 26 June

15 Discrete Binary/Digital/No-Touch Options 7 Discrete Binary/Digital/No-Touch Options 7.1 Overview The MT 306 already supports exotic (or "non-vanilla") options in which a fixed pay-out is made if specific trigger conditions are met. These are known as binary, digital and no-touch options. Up until SR 2015, the trigger conditions are monitored continuously during the life of the option. A discrete binary, digital or no-touch option is one for which the trigger event is monitored at discrete times, rather than the normal continuous trigger case. The trigger is monitored based on an agreed rate-source. 7.2 Discrete Trigger Changes Discrete binary, digital and no-touch options are supported by the MT 306 in the same way as a continuously monitored binary, digital and no-touch options, with the addition of field 14S Settlement Rate Source in sequence G. The discrete barrier is monitored from the rate source specified in field 14S Settlement Rate Source, optionally at the specified time and location. Field 14S Settlement Rate Source may be repeated for cross-currency rates. 7.3 Example Discrete Trigger Option The following example is for a single-trigger no-touch option which will be monitored against the EUR1 rate source: Sequences Explanation Format Sequence A - General Information Sequence B - Transaction Details / Premium Details / Calc Agent General Information :15A: Sender's Reference :20: Type of Operation :22A:NEWT Common Reference :22C:CITI331012DRESFF Contract Number Party A :21N:FXC0526 Option Style :12F:NOTO Expiration Style :12E:EURO Barrier Flag :17A:N Non Deliverable Flag (NDO) :17F:N Type of Event :22K:CONF Party A :82A:DRESDEFF Party B :87A:CITIUS33 Terms and Conditions :77H:ISDA Additional Conditions :77D:/TRUP Transaction Details :15B: Buy (Sell) Indicator :17V:B Trade Date :30T: Expiration Date :30X: June

17 Multi-Currency Binary/Digital/No-Touch Options 8 Multi-Currency Binary/Digital/No-Touch Options 8.1 Overview The MT 306 already supports definition of single or double triggers for exotic (binary, digital and no-touch) options. In SR 2015 this is being extended to support multiple sets of triggers, based on different currency pairs. For example, an option might have triggers in EUR/USD, EUR/AUD, EUR/JPY and EUR/CHF in order to trigger the pay-out based on more general underlying changes in EUR value. 8.2 Multiple Currency Trigger Option Changes Multiple trigger currency pairs may be expressed in the MT 306 by repeating the entire sequence G Trigger block. If sequence G Trigger Block is present more than once in the message then, in order to facilitate consistency between the two parties, it is recommended that the repetitions are ordered such that the values in field 37U Trigger Level are presented in increasing arithmetical order. Note also that field 37U, Trigger Level from the first occurrence of sequence G Trigger Block, is used to create the reference code for field 22C Common Reference in sequence A General Information of the MT 306. Note that for a no-touch option, no triggers must be hit for the pay-out to occur and for digital and binary options all triggers must be hit for the pay-out to occur. 8.3 Example Multiple Currency Trigger Option The following example is for a single trigger binary option being monitored against two currency pairs, EUR/USD and GPB/USD. The order of the trigger blocks is defined according to the lowest to the biggest value in field 37U. The trigger levels in the example are and 1,012, so the trigger with rate 1,012 comes first, followed by the 1,520, (independently of the respective currency pairs).

19 Average Rate and Strike Options and Forwards 9 Average Rate and Strike Options and Forwards 9.1 Overview Options An average strike option gives the buyer the right, without the obligation, to buy a fixed amount of one currency for another on a specific future expiration date. The strike price of the option is derived from an average of currency exchange rates accumulated during the option term. In other words, the strike rate remains unknown until all observations have been collected. An average rate option gives the buyer the right, without the obligation, to buy a fixed amount of one currency for another on a specific future expiration date. The value of the option at expiry and hence whether or not any payment is made and its size are based on exchange rate between the two currencies at various specified points during the life of the option. In other words, this option has a specific expiration date and a series of observation periods (a minimum of two) during its life which determine the option's value at maturity. A double average option is a combination of average rate and average strike, such that both the exercise rate and the strike price are derived from average rates. Average strike options may be deliverable or non-deliverable, but average rate options are always non-deliverable (cash-settled) Forwards Average forwards are broadly similar to average options, except that: They are a commitment to settle the profit or loss There is no premium In an average rate forward the payout is determined by the difference between the forward rate (or strike) set in the contract and the forward rate determined by the fixing dates 9.2 Average Option and Forward Changes Codes for average options and forwards have been added to field 12F Option Style in sequence A General Information. A new conditional optional sequence J Averaging Options and Forwards has been added to the MT 306 in order to support average products. Sequence J includes subsequences for average strike and average rate details, both of which must be used for double average products. Each averaging date has an associated weighting factor, which defines how the average rate or strike is calculated. Several other fields are present in the sequence that are used to define the method for defining the average. The precise usage of these fields must be in accordance with ISDA definitions that are currently under preparation. Note It is expected that further updates will be made to this sequence as part of SR 2016 Sequence H Non-deliverable Option Block must also be present if the option is cash-settled. 26 June

25 Optional Early Termination 10 Optional Early Termination 10.1 Overview An early termination clause can be built into an option, which gives either the buyer or the seller the right to terminate the option at a market price on specified dates during the option s life. Early termination can be defined for any type of option that is supported by the MT Early Termination Changes A new sequence, sequence I Early Termination, has been added to the MT 306 to allow optional early termination clauses to be included within the confirmation. The early termination style can be: European a single date on which the option can be terminated.
